Homemade Baked Potato Chips

I’ve been making baked potato chips for years. But I never considered posting the recipe to CulinaryCory.com because I thought it might be a little too simple for your reading enjoyment. So I decided to ask my Facebook followers what they thought about the idea. Much to my surprise I almost immediately started receiving enthusiastic [...]

Classic Grilled Ham & Cheese Sandwich

I originally wasn’t planning to post this recipe because I thought its simplicity would never interest any of you. However, I realized the simplicity is what makes it interesting. With really good ingredients like fresh baked bread and sharp cheddar cheese, you too can turn a classic grilled ham and cheese sandwich into a masterful [...]

Bacon & Blue Dip

One of the ways I make entertaining look effortless is to always serve an easy and simple appetizer. It helps to keep my guests focused and entertained while I put the finishing touches on the meal. Best of all, appetizers keep my guests out of the kitchen and away from view should a mistake bubble [...]

Stovetop Apple Crisp

What can be more comforting than a dessert made with apples? From pies, to tarts, crostatas and even crisps; apples are clearly my universal go-to fruit for a tasty dessert for a dinner party. The best part is I have yet to find anyone who will turn down something filled with apple goodness. My interest [...]

Succotash

Baked Goat Cheese Marinara

Isn’t it amazing how something so simple can look so good in a photo? I posted this to my Facebook Fan Page a couple of days ago because I was that excited to share it before the blog post went live. I figured why should I deny my fans from such tasty beauty? (insert gleeful [...]

Easy Chocolate Turtles

I have to admit I am not a huge fan of chocolate turtles. If I had a choice between turtles or something else, I would almost always pick the other thing. However, I have friends who absolutely love them. So I figure making batch of the chewy goodness would be a win-win situation for everyone. [...]

Parmesan Rosemary Breadsticks

Brent and I had an agreement to only spend $30 on two or more gifts this Christmas. It goes without saying that it was a challenge to find the perfect gifts on such a budget. But I pushed through and found what I wanted to give. While opening our presents, Brent pulled out a huge [...]

Crispy Goat Cheese Salad for One

Brent recently decided to go back to school; which leaves me cooking for myself most weeknights. Sure I continue to cook as I normally do, and end up saving the leftovers for our lunches the next day. But there are times when I just want to flop on a couch, watch some recorded shows on [...]
